Two civilians were killed and dozens injured in Russian airstrikes in Syria's northwestern Idlib province on Wednesday, according to sources with the White Helmets civil defense agency. The dawn attacks targeted a refugee camp in Kafr Amim village in the city of Saraqib, the sources said. Nearly 19 people, mostly children, were injured in the attacks, the sources said. According to a pro-opposition warplane observatory, the attacks were carried out by a Russian SU 34 plane that took off from Khmeimim airbase in Syria's Latakia province. Regime attacks in Idlib's de-escalation zone are estimated to have killed at least 126 civilians -- and injured more than 380 others -- since the beginning of 2019.
